Life today, especially in cities, for a lot of people is long travel to work, even more longer working hours, being always on the move, and not enough sleep. This results in fatigue and tired eyes.

Other symptoms include redness, irritation and burning sensation in the eyes.

Simple home remedies can prove effective in caring for your eyes.
